Jazmine Sullivan Opens Up About Abusive Relationship on Instagram

Jazmine Sullivan posted a picture on instagram of her standing in a Pier 1 store while she reflected on an abusive relationship from her past. She recently spoke of this relationship during a concert saying that she had taken a hiatus from music because of it.

The post reads:

I have an interesting story abt pier1. The last time I was in this store was during my abusive relationship w my ex 3-4 years ago. I used to come and walk around this store for hours just to get away from him and the house. I would cry in here. The workers never bothered me. I guess they could tell a sad girl when they saw her. But today I was joyful, laughing and feeling love from my bestfraan. So I'd like to take the time to thank God for who and where I am today. Walking around this store w this happy attitude today may be small to anyone else, but I know from where God brought me. So I just wanted to share. Take a minute and thank God that ur not where u used to be!!!
